Julian: I've owned quite a number of 50-100 year old instruments, and a few have cracked and been repaired. So I'm skeptical that the older craftsmen were able to discern which wood wouldn't crack, although it's a known fact that they had access to better quality wood in the old days.
I once owned a fabulous Selmer Balanced Tone from the 1930s that had been cracked and repaired. It was a wonderful instrument. As a sometime seller on ebay people shy away from a cracked and repaired instrument. They can be just as good as they were before the crack!
